Apple discontinues 2015 15-inch MacBook Pro, the best laptop ever

Both of the smart watches are expected to be released with enhanced heart rate detection.

Black Magic Design says that it delivers up to 7x the performance on DaVinci Resolve 15 when compared with the standard graphics performance of a 13-inch MacBook Pro from 2016, and up 2x the perfomance when compared with a 15-inch MacBook Pro from 2015. The new 13-inch MacBook Pro features up to 8th-generation quad-core Intel Core i5 and Core i7 processors (up to 2.7GHz with Turbo Boost up to 4.5GHz), said to be twice as fast as the previous generation. The new devices are available for purchase right now, starting at $1,799 for the 13-inch model and $2,399 for the 15-inch model. Professional users can take things to the next-level with upgrade options to 32GB memory on the 15-inch MacBook Pro, and up to 2TB SSD on the 13-inch and up to 4TB SSD on the 15-inch. The new computers are available today to order through Apple. In macOS Mojave, a new Dark Mode transforms the desktop with a dramatic new look that puts the focus on user content.

Doing so would mark the first major redesign of the Apple Watch since it was first launched in 2014.

Apple's new 2018 MacBook Pro range is here, and if you've been holding off a Mac upgrade because you wanted more performance, these could well be the notebooks for you. Or, you could kick it up another notch entirely if you elect to splurge on the beastly six-core i9 with an unheard of (in a Mac) 4.8GHz clock speed (using turbo boost).

The previous versions of the keyboard have been a pain-point for customers and Apple for their lack of reliability since the switch to the newer, thinner butterfly keys, about which there are now multiple lawsuits.

The new computers also feature the new Apple T2 chip, which was first used in last year's high-end iMac Pro.

A few of the more interesting excerpts regarding the new MacBook Pro keyboard can be viewed below. The chip adds an extra layer of security and brings "Hey Siri" voice command support to the MacBook Pro. While other notebook-makers are turning to OLED and other screen technologies to raise their game, these new True Tone Retina Displays suggest Apple isn't sleeping on screen quality either.
